Since the topic of cordless vacuum cleaners came up in another thread. We also bought a Crosswave a while ago because of the statements here in the thread. For us, it was a total bad purchase. Used it a few times and since then it has been standing in the box in the corner. Threw 400€ out the window. Poor suction performance, especially at the edges, brush too thick, we couldn't get under many pieces of furniture, mopping performance was a joke and if you didn't clean it thoroughly every(!) time, the whole apartment smelled like mold after the next use. I don't even dare to offer it on eBay because I think no one should have to deal with that.
